“Message from Jeremy: To all Tech IT Easy readers, who could obviously not necessarily remember the initial announcement, I have invited my friend Steve to help me try to provide you, dear readership, with everyday better technology insights. Steve’s mission statement is that there’s no mission statement: what matters most here is to raise the right issues on underlying market trends, bringing to light new software, Internet services and consumer electronic devices. Steve, the floor is yours…”

Hi everybody,

This will be an unusual post. Instead of providing you with information, I’ll take some from you. Well, at least, if you have some knowledge to share about Web 2.0 .

Let me explain. I am currently composing a working paper for academic purposes, in order to complete my graduation from France’s well-knowned business school, HEC. The subject I chose will be of interest for many of you readers. Here I go:

“Can we build a sustainable business model by connecting users in a social netwotk ?  The example of some Web 2.0 companies. (“Peut-on bâtir un business model durable autour de la mise en relation des utilisateurs ? L’exemple de quelques sociétés Web 2.0″)

I would be glad to obtain information on some flagships of the social network industry, especially the most profitable of these, such as Meetic, Facebook or LinkedIn. Nonetheless, since I presume accessing these corporations will be less easy than introducing a nuke inside Fort Knox, I’ll be highly interest to have a little chat with any Web 2.0 entrepreneur, who had even the faintest experience with social networking. I would really appreciate your contribution, and will reward it with a nice copy of my final report, as well as a free coffee or a free lunch in Paris. This shouldn’t take you more than half an hour, and you will also help science - while no strategic information will be disclosed or even asked for. The major conclusions will, naturally, end up in a synthetic post in Tech IT Easy !

You can contact me right here, in the comment sections. Or by email: steve.danino@mailhec.net. Or MSN: stevedanino@aol.com. Or even by phone, Skype, snail mail, or by carrier pigeon if you wish.

Thanks in advance for your help.
